Do they though when they have armies of bots snatching up released tranches within seconds?
Not saying this always happens but it's also not as simple as "people are comfy and thus pay more later".
With profits/volume comes "professionalization" (aka "scale") and the regular Joe gets left behind because they're just in it for one ticket and not thousand(s?).

If you limit early release to accounts tied to a personal credit card, you'll limit the scalpers' scale.
